Yeah, the story about Arnold dropping the Minigun in "Terminator 2", against the wishes of armorer Harry Lu, is apocryphal. As IMFDB's entry for the movie points out, the weapon dropped was a rubber version (and a picture of it appears on the page).
That being said, there are stories of actors improvising and dropping live-fire weapons when they weren't supposed to. MPM, didn't you hear from Syd Stembridge that Sly actually threw down the M60 at the end of "First Blood: Part II"?
